| Description of the problem | 2002 toyota highlander drivers side visor will not stay up. This is the second $850 unit in 2 years. It's annoying, not to mention dangerous when it dropped down unexpectedly and blocked my view through the windshield. Between the visor and the hood of the vehicle, i could see about a 2" strip of asphalt about 10 feet in front of the hood. Very very dangerous!!!!!! |
